FJB just blew something like $300m on his pier that collapsed.  More borrowed money, gone.

Fuck Gaza. Let them rot. And I’m not much inclined to help Israel either. They can take care of themselves just fine.

  So the US will get the bill, borrow the money and tell the US taxpayer to pay it back, with interest.   All to an organization that hates our guts.

Quote
The third phase of the proposal would see the final remains of any deceased Israeli hostages returned, as well as a "major reconstruction plan" with US and international assistance to rebuild homes, schools and hospitals.

Will we start to hear calls that a jury of your peers should be those of the same political persuasion?

  I fully expect a few of the jurors on the Trump jury to get "book deals" (big prepayments, AKA "bribes")

Rejected Ron DeSantis Positions his Voice following Trump Conviction

Sundance

Most Republican voters are not familiar with the Machiavellian ways of the multinational corporations who control most of the professionally Republican politicians as puppets.  A large percentage of political observers think the “corporate Republican” meme is overused, in part because they need to retain their own sense of stability.

The illusion of the two-party system is comfortable to the psyche, and the beneficiaries of the cognitive dissonance work earnestly to keep up pretenses.  However, there is a great awakening happening as people realize the UniParty is very real.

Democrats want power, Republicans want money.  Democrats use money to get power, Republicans use power to get money.  The ideology of the Democrats drives their donor activity, while the donor activity of the Republicans drives their ideology.  This is the structural difference between both wings of the UniParty apparatus.

In the aftermath of the Trump verdict, the corporations who control the professionally Republican approach have two vested candidates they would position as beneficiaries – Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley.

You might remember that during the initial shock of the Mar-a-Lago FBI raid, Ron DeSantis sent one tweet from his personal account and then went silent for 5 days, hiding from all media.  At the conclusion of the 5-days, DeSantis emerged and began his August national branding tour, which then morphed into his 2022 “book tour.”  Everything was carefully scripted, planned, scheduled and controlled.

The professionally Republican groups that support Ron DeSantis, in addition to his online influencer group (formerly Ted Cruz Crew), do not like it when you point out the visible fingerprints of the Sea Island strategists around DeSantis; but I don’t care.  CTH points out their activity specifically because it is very predictable and part of the long history inside the modern Republican Party.

Following the Trump verdict in New York, team DeSantis position their narrative; only this time, they use the official account of the Florida governor, because he suspended his 2024 campaign for the Republican presidential nomination. [The control group have him in waiting mode.]



There is a tribe of rabid professional Republicans – generally online influencers who receive pay, benefits and indulgences from the multinationals and billionaire class – who absolutely hate it when you point out the corporate agenda behind the DeSantis operation.  These are the same people, groups and organizations, who attacked us two years ago for pointing out the DeSantis plan for ’24.

The argument is akin to saying that anyone who supports Trump now should be excused for all their previous Machiavellian moves, hate-filled opposition and duplicity.  These are skillful professional GOPe abusers who make the same passive aggressive arguments as toxic leftists.  They swarm those who put sunlight on the Republican schemes and call us names for informing people about their Trojan Horse deceptions.

This highly structured commentary from Ron DeSantis (now using his FL.gov Twitter account) is part of their professional political manipulation. These are the same GOPe entities who will be willfully blind to rules and regulations that ban “convicted felons” from federal (or Republican) campaigns.  See them for who they are and notice the positioning of Ron and Nikki in advance of the RNC convention.

In the past several decades, the motive of a Republican or Democrat politician, advancing their influence by running for political office, has absolutely nothing to do with representing the interests of the American people.  Nothing.  Their interests are to engage within the business of politics, while presenting themselves as qualified actors to retain the premise of political service.  This is why they will spend $10 million to win an office that only pays $400k/yr.

The business of buying, selling and controlling policy, is the core operation of people within the US political system.  As an outcome, the business has two wings – the RNC and the DNC.  Two private corporations inside the political industry who are in place to retain the overall business model.  The RNC and DNC are both funded by the same interests, banks, corporations, Wall St interests, and even foreign interests who purchase outcomes.

The RNC and DNC are two operational wings inside the industry of politics.  The are in the same business, but they have slightly different business models.

The Republicans (RNC) want money, the Democrats (DNC) want power.  The Republicans use power to get money, the Democrats use money to get power.  The donor activity of the Republicans drives their agenda.  The agenda of the Democrats drives their donor activity.  It is a subtle nuance, but once you really understand it, everything falls into place.

The Republican politicians are ambivalent to the outcomes of the Democrats.  The Republican group only cares about the money.  Threaten the power of the Democrats, and you get a toxic and violent response.  Threaten the money of the Republicans, and you get exactly the same level of response.  It is critical to understand that both the DNC and RNC are private corporations with no affiliation to government.

The MAGA base of support cannot trust this Republican corporate group and we must not be blind or unguarded about the Machiavellian schemes they construct.  Donald Trump is not a problem for the Republican Party; Donald Trump is our response to the problem within the Republican Party.

Making America Great Again is an outcome of national economic policy.  At its core, MAGA is a national economic dynamic within a political movement that is represented by President Donald J. Trump.

It is critical to understand, the MAGA economic policy is essentially a national policy completely, and uniquely, under the control of the office of the President.  The impact to the lives of Americans is a direct outcome from national economic policy.  If a president wants to lead an independently wealthy country, he/she applies a very specific economic outlook to all other policy areas including energy, regulation and foreign policy.

It is also true that opposition to President Donald Trump is uniquely connected to the America First economic agenda.

Multimillion-dollar lobbyist firms like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the Business Roundtable, along with dozens of economically established SuperPAC’s funded by Wall Street and multinational corporations, are vehemently opposed to the America First economic agenda.

All of the national politicians and political candidates taking money from these aforementioned groups necessarily bind themselves to a position that stands against the America First economic agenda.

In essence, if you take money from the multinationals, you cannot deliver on MAGA economic outcomes for banking, trade, finance etc.  And that’s exactly where we run into the problem.

Because MAGA national economic priorities conflict with the multinational corporations, hedge funds and the Wall Street donor class, all of the politicians who accept the influence checks from these self-interested groups cannot run on, or deliver, a MAGA national economic agenda.

At a local, county and state level, you have direct impact on the political policy agenda in your community.  Who you elect to the city council, school board, state house and Senate, as well as governor’s office, has an impact on those local and state priorities.  However, national economic policy, national energy and trade policy, and national foreign policy are not under your control.

As a result, the same skillset, or policy outlook, that makes a governor a successful state politician doesn’t carry into a federal office, [see the example of Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker].  Yes, there are some executive and administration skills that carry over; however, on the bigger issue of steering the national policy agenda, almost every candidate for office comes with the baggage of having accepted donor contributions from a class of people who are paying for economic policy influence.

MAGA cannot be purchased.  It is a political outlook that seeks only to enhance the best interests of the American people, regardless of consequence for the multinationals or foreign beneficiaries of globalist U.S. economic policy.  Unfortunately, as a result, all of the beneficiaries are aligned to make sure the MAGA economic policy outlook is extinguished.  There are literally trillions at stake.  This reality underpins the opposition to Donald Trump.

When you understand why the national economic outlook of the President is so important, you can also understand why every political candidate is told not to discuss it by the handlers and campaign managers who are essentially selling their candidate to a millionaire and billionaire donor class who do not want an America First economic policy agenda.

There is no easy solution for this problem, and ironically this core economic issue is where you find supporters of both Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump in alignment.

Where the Sanders and Trump camps split is on the solution.  Team Sanders wants the government to play the role of economic referee (regulation), while Team Trump wants the government to change the rules of the economic game (countervailing duties, tariffs etc).

Before Donald Trump entered politics, there was no home for people voting on the issue of a national economic agenda.

Both Democrat and Republican candidates had essentially the same worldview on national economic policy because they are all getting money from the same multinational corporate trough.  However, President Trump changed that dynamic by presenting an alternative national economic policy called America First.

For decades, Middle America was begging the McConnells, Ryans, Boehners, Romneys, McCains, Bushes, et al, to make America First economic policies their priority.  All of our shouts for help fell upon deaf political ears plugged by corporate donations and influence.  Our communities were literally collapsing around us (see rust belt), and yet no national politician would do anything of consequence.

By the time Donald Trump arrived, decades of frustration exploded in an eruption of massive applause, because he was articulating the central economic issue that was being ignored by the professional political class.  The America First agenda is the restoration agenda.  From Trump’s national economic policy, the middle class erosion stopped. Economic security, specifically U.S. employment stability and wage rates, goes hand in glove with border security and immigration controls.

MAGAnomics is the core of the great MAGA Republican coalition, a working class coalition that cuts through all other distinctions and divisions.  It is not Republican because of political affiliation; it is “MAGA Republican” only because the Republican Party was the political vehicle selected by Donald Trump to install the policy.

This reality creates a problem for the DC professional political class and the corporate media. Because MAGAnomics is the fundamentally binding principle, there is no way to fracture the Trump supporter coalition.

I am a “MAGA Republican” by default of my wanting a national economic agenda that looks out for the economic interests of Americans first.

Donald Trump is the irreplaceable Great MAGA King, because Donald Trump is the only one who holds that same outlook.  Unfortunately, the Republican corporation does not carry that priority. Thus, the Big Ugly battle for control of the Republican Party remains in place and we must be very guarded about those who present themselves with MAGA masks.

You're purposely vague, obtuse and make statements that lead to these speculative conclusions. It doesn't happen with anyone else here nor on other websites. Why is that?

I’m loathe to take sides with you two because I like you both, however, I did wonder how you made that leap to he thinks the trial was unbiased, etc.  Granted I can’t recall him going on about how biased it is, but neither has he said the opposite, and so for my part, I made the assumption that he does think it was biased, if for no other reason than it is blatantly obviously biased, and only a literally brain dead moron would think otherwise.  Which neither of you are.
